Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet and miles per hour.
Honestly, it’s a pretty grim outlook for the next couple weeks. There’s a massive gap with no decent surf from now, Wednesday July 8th, all the way through to Tuesday July 21st. Just tiny, weak waves and mostly ugly wind. The water temp at Karramarro is 77°, which is a wild 9° warmer than average for this time of year – the ocean is unusually warm.
The only true standout pops up on Wednesday July 22nd. That morning at Karramarro (an advanced point break that’s inconsistent and often crowded) we’re lookin’ at an 8ft swell from the WNW with a 9-second period. The combined energy is cranking at 1133 – that’s strong to very strong. The wind is glassy out of the NNE at just 5 km/h (3 mph), which will make for perfect, clean waves. This size is for experts only, no beginners out there. The swell direction is straight out of the optimum.
By the afternoon the wind gets cross-on and the swell drops to 7ft, and conditions get messy. So the golden window is Wednesday morning – it’s your only real chance for a proper session in this entire forecast. After that, it’s back to small and weak. If you kite, the afternoon might still be worth a look, but for a surfer, you gotta be on it early.
Rusty.

Information about the Karramarro Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Karramarro provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Karramarro can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Karramarro surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Karramarro) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Karramarro may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
